New Year Challenge



Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I am leaving for Singapore in a few days and while I'm bringing my laptop with me, I'm not sure if I'll manage to get an internet connection.

So this will probably be my last update on the challenge until I get back on the 7th of Jan. With Christmas and packing, I don't think I'll be online between now and when I fly off.

I'm just 0.2lbs away from my goal of a 12lbs loss! I am hoping that it will go and stay off while I'm over in Singapore with all its yummy food!

Will see you all in the New Year! Merry Christmas everyone and may your new year be everything you hope it will be!

Just wanted to quickly come on and update that I've reached goal! 181lbs to 169lbs before New Years and Im 168lbs plus change as of today!

Good luck to everyone still striving for goal! You can do it! And even if you don't, you're down however much you've lost, and that's a success in it's own right!

I don't think I will make goal by next week, but I have finally lost 2lbs. I have been stuck for the past 3 weeks at the same weight! Woo Hoo!

I have 4lbs to meet my goal - it would take a miracle, but I will be happy with any downward movement!

Ick. I put on 3 pounds this week. Travel, no exercise, visiting family, emotional stress all caught up with me. It's just a bump in the road though, and I'm getting back on track. We'll just have to see how things go this week.

Start 281 - current 271 - 2lbs to go to the New Year Challenge Goal.

I had a new treadmill delivered up here in the beautiful mountains with several feet of snow on the ground and am on vacation this week - so my goal is to get 5 miles per day of walking and exceed the remaining 2 lbs.

Good luck to everyone and keep up the good work! :hurray:

New Years Challenge Results -

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL !!!!!!

I am checking in two days early because I am going to Disney World with the family to Celebrate the holiday.

I am 2 lbs short of my goal but I lost 8 lbs since the challenge started Nov. 15.

I am very happy with my results. I did splurge over the past few weeks. I postponed my December fill until Jan 6th so I could enjoy the holiday.

Next Goals are very important. I plan on losing 20 more lbs by May 1st....

Good Luck to all....

Woo hoo! I've lost the 3.2 pounds I put on over Christmas, plus another 0.6, to put me at just 0.2 from my end of year goal. And I'm not gonna pout over that little bit - it'll be gone by this time tomorrow anyway!

Happy New Year's Eve everyone!

Ok this challenge did not work out so well for me. :confused:

I think the need for a fill and the holidays did a number on me. I was better than I have ever been before which is wonderful, but overall the Desserts got me.

For this challenge, I lost 6 lbs. Not what I wanted, but hey I will take the loss!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
